years. Ecology Telescopium telescopium are detritivores. Mangrove forest floors is where Telescopium telescopium predominately acquire their nutrients to function, where they feed on the rich decomposed organic matter that is left behind during the ebb tide phase of tidal movements and surface algae. They also only scavenge for food when covered completely or partially with just their shell tips exposed as a means of protection against heat, desiccation, and predators. Telescopium telescopium feed on mangrove sediment and mangrove leaves to get important bacteria that are needed to function. These include: Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus sphaericcus, Staphycococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. Telescopium telescopium are not a threat to humans. In addition to deforestation and marine pollution, micro-plastics have become a big threat to Telescopium telescopium. A study was undertaken to examine the effects on Telescopium telescopium and the results showed a correlation between an increase in mass and level of ingested micro-plastics in the digestive organ, and inhaled in the respiratory system. The most common type of micro-plastic found in the Telescopium telescopium was film. This was followed by fibre, and finally fragmen. Human Uses Telescopium telescopium have begun to be used as bio monitors of Cu, Zn, and Pb in tropical intertidal regions. Components of the molluscs’ soft tissue and their shells accumulate amounts of trace metals when exposed to them over their lifetime. It is these accumulated concentrations that are used as bio monitors. The main components used of the Telescopium telescopium are commonly the digestive caecum and the shell. The shell is used as a Pb bio-monitor as it accumulates more lead than any soft tissue. The digestive caecum is used as a Zn bio-monitor as it accumulates more zinc than any other component. The following soft tissue can also be used as bio-monitors for Cu, Zn, and Pb. Foot Cephalic tentacle Mantle Muscle Gills The Telescopium telescopium was again used as a bio monitor in 2013 for Darwin. It was used to detect levels of Nitrogen and Carbon stable isotopes present in the cities sewage. The trial proved to be a success as results highlighted a strong correlation between Nitrogen and Carbon Isotopes present in the Telescopium telescopium tissue, and the sediment samples taken from where they were dwelling. The Telescopium telescopium was used in India, in 2010, as biomonitor for Fe, Mg, Zn, and Cu. The readings of the heavy metals in the
